Early Pearl
This cultivar of narcissus came with my house--one of the few flowering plants
there--and, as often, put in an early appearance a few days ago. Last spring it had worked itself into such a huge clump that it barely flowered, and I had one of those lightbulb moments, "It's gotta be divided. Free naturalized narcissi all over the front patch." So I dug up a baseball-size knot of bulbs, separated them, replanted, and as predicted they're raising their cream-and-saltless-butter heads all over. zemedelec |

Now I'll have to check my Brent&Beckys, because it might be "Early Louisiana".
Whatever, it is the variety that first greeted me at the house in New Orleans, Zone 9, about a mile from the Mississippi. zemedelec |

Yep, it's Early Pearl--blooming its little heart out since Dec. 19. Nice but
not overpowering frangrance. zemedelec |
